(Not me, btw. Another brown gal.)
If you’re free Thursday night, check out Falu’s show at the North Star Bar. (Thanks to P.G. reader A.S. for sharing this.)
Who’s Falu you ask?
Sepia Mutiny says it best:
“People interested in Asian Underground music have probably already heard of Falu, a singer who first appeared on Karsh Kale’s Realize back in 2001. Since then she’s been featured on a number of other people’s CDs, but today she releases her own, self-titled CD. Rather than going for more in the way electronic beats, here Falu works with a live rock/desi fusion band, doing a mix of English and Hindi/Urdu songs.”
When I checked out her website, I realized Falu performed with AR Rahman at the Time magazine’s celebration of the Most 100 Influential People. (Totally was on my mental list of things to Google.)
Anywhoo, now she’s coming to Philly. You should go. She IS playing Carnegie Hall later this fall (November). You could wait till then. Or check her out now. I say now.
